I'm happy to report that even my Win 3.11 machine,with TS
4,automatically 'sprang forward' in the time area,and all market data
seems intact.

========================
My computer clock got so excited by this Daylight Savings Thingy that it
'sprang forward' TWO hours. And I also found my TS data showing the last
bar on charts ending the day 1 hour earlier than it 'used to' or should. I
did 2 things following that and I don't know which impacted the issue with
respect to the times on TS data. First I rebooted. And before I reloaded GS
and TS I just reset my computer clock time. So I don't know if the 'reboot'
or just resetting my computer clock 'fixed' the problem of displaying the
'right' time on TS charts. I did go through the checks Robert Cummings
suggested earlier today and found everything according to Hoyle on that end.
I note a potential 'misunderstanding' though with respect to one issue Robert
discussed. It concerns the last 'important part' he mentioned: He stressed
that, while in the Edit Daylight Savings screen for an exchange, to look and
see what the GMT is set at and then mentioned that he was "on CT" so his is
set at -360. I do believe that setting is for the Exchange time zone and NOT
for 'his'. So for that setting it shouldn't matter if he is on CT or some
other time zone (such as the 'preferred' time zone - Pacific. You know, the
one I'M in! <G>). Boy, if I'm wrong here I hope somebody blows the whistle
on me.
